Schools all over the country are lifting mask mandates. Schools in Hoboken are lifting the mask mandate. Pre-k 3 and Pre-4 programs in Hoboken are lifting the mask mandate. However, ONLY Pre-k 3 and Pre-k 4 children at Connors and Rue are being forced to wear masks. Since the US government has not lifted the mask requirement, the Office of Head Start is continuing their mask mandate. Since Connors and Rue Pre-K programs are federally funded, the mask mandate has not been lifted yet. HOWEVER, we need to push the Office of Head Start to act quickly. Parents are being told conflicting information. We are being told that the Office of Head Start "will not evaluate compliance with the mask requirement." We are also being told that the Office of Head Start "is reviewing the new CDC recommendations and finalizing the regulation."  Sign this petition. Let's get enough signatures together to show the Office of Head Start how we need to act swiftly to lift the mandate NOW!
